Florian Wirtz has been getting interest from top teams all over Europe for the past few years.
The aggressive midfielder Wirtz is very good at what he does and has a good eye for goal. Any team that wants to find a long-term midfielder would do well to sign him, and Barcelona has been after him for a while.
It’s hard for them to make big changes, though, as it is with most of their moving work.
If the Catalans want to add a center right away, they will first look at Martin Zubimendi. They are also interested in Joshua Kimmich, a German player.
If Kimmich doesn’t decide to sign with Bayern Munich again, they might hear good news about him.
Bayern Munich might let Kimmich go if they try to sign Wirtz, which Sky Sports Germany reports they are thinking about.
The German news source also says that Bayer Leverkusen knows how much Wirtz is worth and has set a price of 120 million euros or more to get a fair deal for one of their best players who they think will be leaving soon.
The player is wanted by both Bayern and United.
Bavaria is a team that every young German player who wants to move to will look at. Wirtz is the same.
Even though Bayern wants to get him, they can’t because of the high price and the fact that they don’t have enough room on their team right now.
Real Madrid wants Jamal Musiala, and Kimmich could leave. They will make a lot of money and save some on wages if they do.
United is also interested in Wirtz, and they’ll likely be in touch soon to find out more.
Barcelona could wait it out.
Leverkusen thinks Wirtz will stay with them until the end of the 24/25 season. This gives them plenty of time to go all out and make a lot of money to try to get him.
But if not, they can use the fact that Bayern needs to sell to get Kimmich, who has been a goal for a long time, to make the center stronger.
The Catalans will do nothing for a while and just watch, but in sports, anything can happen.
